Background notes
Archive material and source history
Kadril was a Dutch musical ensemble that formed in the late 1960s. The group included Willem Friese on vocals and guitar, Henk van Broekhoven on bass, and Ad van Galen on drums. They released their self-titled debut album in 1969, followed by 'Verloren stad' in 1971 and 'Afscheidslied' in 1974.
Their 1974 single 'Afscheidslied' became their most recognizable song, a Dutch-language ballad that connected with listeners through its direct emotional tone. The track's straightforward approach to themes of separation and heartache gave it staying power beyond its initial release.
Other songs in their catalog like 'Amerika is een schoon land' and 'De Verloren Zoon' show the group working in a similar vein of narrative folk-pop. Their music has been covered by other Dutch artists over time, with 'Afscheidslied' receiving particular attention from performers like Marco Borsato and Anneke van Giersbergen.
